Other lines running through my head now include:

Siam - gonna be a witness

You get the feeling Tim Rice would be fun to share a pint with

Started as a concept album by Abba's Benny Andersson and Bjorn Ulvaeus, with lyrics by Tim Rice then moved to London's West End. I'm not sure if there were any other hits from it other than One Night in Bangkok

Look at all those dashes. I am appalled - appalled! - to realise PG Wodehouse was an early user of ChatGPT.

The Olympians shift their weight slightly to steer. I used my toes, digging into the ice. Hands were kept safely away from the sharp runners!

I love the idea of a luge run in a state park - what a fabulous resource!

I tried it a couple of times. I’m no athlete or speed junkie but I can tell you it was an incredible rush. I can understand it would be utterly addictive.

You *are* making the world listen by these daily updates.

Every Ukrainian voice that reaches us is heard. Some brave ones among us visit with aid. Others of us give what we can.

Be your amazing, strong self in these dark, cold days.

You are not alone.

Victory and peace will come.

There are over 100 L&D conference worldwide each year. I made a list of them so you don't have to.

Not quite a cosy movie, but have you seen the TV series Vicious? Ian McKellen and Derek Jacobi as a gay couple of 50 years?
